Resumo

Copper sulfate and sodium hypochlorite are used in the preparation of cattle footbath solutions, aimed at treating and preventing digital diseases, but little is known about the residues that these substances leave in animal products. The purpose of this study was to evaluate, on soil and milk, residues left by chemicals used in cattle foot bath. The study was developed in two stages. In the first stage, the residual of chlorine and copper in the milk of healthy cows after successive passages in footbath solutions containing these substances was analyzed and the costs of the solutions were estimated. The presence of copper residues was evaluated using atomic absorption spectrophotometry and chlorine residues were evaluated by dosing total chloride in milk using a commercial kit. In the experiment, 14 healthy cows were divided into two groups (GI and GII) of seven animals each. In GI a solution of sodium hypochlorite 1% was used and in GII copper sulphate 5% was used. The milk samples were collected before the passage through the footbath (M0) after 24 (M1), 48 (M2) and 72 hours (M3) and 15 days (M15), following the last passage. Statistical analysis comparing the moments of each sample and the substances evaluated was performed using Friedman test followed by Dunn's test (p <0.05). It was concluded that the values of total chloride and copper in the milk of healthy cattle, after daily passage in footbath for a period of seven days, showed some variations considered insufficient to cause harm to human health and the solutions did not show exorbitant costs. In the second stage, copper residues were evaluated in soil treated with a mixture of cattle feces and urine, simulating cattle liquid manure, containing or not copper sulfate solution. Initially samples were collected from soil in pastures of EVZ / UFG, which were placed in PVC columns divided into four layers. The columns were divided into three treatments (CI, CII and CIII). The CI treatment received only cattle liquid manure and the CII and CIII treatments received the same material added of different amounts of copper sulfate solution. During 120 days, rain was simulated on the PVC columns. In the statistical analysis, analysis of variance followed by the Scott-Knott test at 5% probability were used. It was observed that copper levels were significantly higher in CIII treatment than in CI and CII. The same is true regarding the treatments CII for CI. In treatments CII and CIII copper levels were significantly higher in the superficial layer of soil throughout the experimental period. It was concluded that copper residues available to plants in soil treated with a mixture containing bovine feces and urine associated with copper sulfate solution and water are higher in the upper layers of the soil showing no significant changes in the deeper layers after consecutive rains.
